Three door sedan, all there, engine froze up but all there. Would this be worth my time as far as putting man hours into just as a project for me and my son? What would this be worth in this condition? With original title?
I like it, but I like anything odd and different. Looks complete enough to restore but would be very difficult(and expesive) to find missing parts. Would also have to be good with woodwork. Or rod it, you only need the sheetmetal and replace all wood with steel. The 3 doors would really blow some minds and with a hemi, oh my! Value? no idea.
Looks like the Willys Overland design department did,nt have much imagination back then. Is that the original body ? Looks like an old parade car. Now a replica 2 seater speedster body, maybe small boattail ( bare esentials )would be an improvement. Check out the specials thread, i think Nedd Lud started that thread. BTW, if it,s a champion it deserves a sporty look to it.
Getting it from a good friend that's had it in his family for years, he doesn't have time to do it right, so we're gonna give it a whirl and hang onto it in case he ever wants it back someday.
Not sure what it's worth money wise but I'd say it's worth you and your sons time as a fun Father son project.Hope you post more pictures too.good luck.
